Since then however, I found ; an interesting scene very deep in the corresponding area of the ; Z^(8.0000001)+C Mandeloid. ; ; I named the image "Belated Decorations" when I noticed that ; the eight yellowish features surrounding the central order-8 ; minibrot resemble the candy canes still hanging on the F.C. ; solstice tree. ; ; In my opinion, the overall worth of the image was compromised by ; its similarity to the most recent images, resulting in a rating ; of a 6-1/2, which probably is overly conservative. ; ; The calculation time of under 2 minutes is brief enough to make ; running the included parameter file almost a pleasure. A trip ; to the FOTD web site at: ; ; ; ; to view the completed image there would be a literal pleasure. ; ; Lots of sun and lighter winds here at Fractal Central on ; Thursday made the temperature of 23F -5C feel pretty good, good ; enough at least to satisfy the fractal cats, who spent most of ; the afternoon in the sunny southwest window. ; ; My day was notably uneventful. The next FOTD will be posted in ; 24 hours. Until then, take care, and seek the elusive fractal. ; ; ; Jim Muth ; jamth@mindspring.com ; jimmuth@aol.com ; ; ; START PARAMETER FILE======================================= BelatedDecorations { ; time=0:01:52.74-SF5 on P4-2000 reset=2004 type=manzpower center-mag=-1.0945128360\ 42731/+0.00000004679414411/4.087013e+012/1/-82.5/0 params=0/0/8.0000001/0 float=y maxiter=2000 bailout=16 inside=0 outside=tdis periodicity=10 mathtolerance=0.05/1 colors=000NbQfJpiQklXgocbrjZuzUzzQzzUzwXzw_zwbzwez\ whzk_z_SwB8pE7iI6bM5WQ4PU3JY2Lb1Ng1Pl1SkAUkIWkQZjZ\ `ifbendeve_ufVtgQthLsiGsjBrk6rXKvIXzj81k58k2Ek0K7w\ _BocFggI_jMSnQKrTCuQHsOMrLRpJVoG_mEdlChkLloUorhWUw\ C5vwLtsIspGqlEpiBne9mb7l_5ad4Sh4Im48q4El8KgCQbGVZK\ `UOfPSlKWqGZCwYBxZAx_9y`8yaDvcHtdLrePpfGpX8pN0pE1k\ H2fJ3aM4XO8YPCZQF_RJ`SMaTQbUTcVNfUHiTBkT8`S5QR2GQ8\ JOEMMKPKQSIWVHRNKMFNH7PLDIPICTN6_WAfdEmmIsuLnpTik`\ dgh_bpWZxVQqU6WT9OSGXRCQQ9JN0GKCEHEBFF9KFKOFKSFmWN\ z_Pzc_zg`zaazXaxRbsMbmHcgBcb6dY1dTB`RLXPVTPdPOnLOh\ ITbGYXDbRBgL9lTOn`bpgqrhmqhiqhephapiYoiUoiQniNnfRp\ cVq`ZrYbtVfuSjvQmwPkuOisNgrNfpMdnLbmK`kK_jFYbAWW5U\ P1SI2QG2OF2MD2KC2IB3JC3JC3JC3JC4JD4JD4JD4JD9TEEaEJ\ kFNtFRqLUnQXkV`h_cedfciiZflVcoQ`qMYkLUeKR_JNUIKOIH\ LOLJTPHYTFbWCh_Amc8rg6wjAqZEkOIeCM_1OX7QUCRRITPNUM\ TWJYXHb_GuZLuYPuVTmSWeQ_Y } ; END PARAMETER FILE========================================= ; ; ; ; _______________________________________________ ; Fractint mailing list ; Fractint@mailman.xmission.com ; http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fractint
